Tardive Dyskinesia (TD) Presents Symptoms Somewhat Similar to Parkinson's Disease

The most serious Reglan side effect to emerge from reports is an otherwise rare condition known as Tardive Dyskinesia, or TD.  TD is a condition that attacks the patient's central nervous system in a progressive manner.  There are several extremely troubling aspects of TD, including:

1. The medical science world does not know how TD originates its attack on the central nervous system.
2. There is no known cure for TD.
3. The symptoms of TD can get continually worse until the patient struggles with even the most basic tasks of daily life.

The symptoms of TD can vary to a degree, but the common factor involves involuntary movements of different parts of the body that are repetitive and beyond the patient's control.  These involuntary movements can strike:

• Mouth
• Face
• Legs
• Arms
• Tongue
• Trunk

These rapid, spastic-like movements become progressively more rapid over time, and at a certain point the patient is simply unable to manage a normal day or to enjoy a most basic quality of life anyone would expect to enjoy.
